A Ship Bound for the Deepways…

 

Our motto, “To New Frontiers” has sent us to places where nobody else has ever gone before. From the graveyard continent of Athera to the deepest depths of the Nether, and from the vast swamps of the Attenlund to the expansive tunnels of the Deepways, we have endeavored to explore our world to the fullest extent.

DEPARTMENTS OF THE NGS

Spoiler

The Exploration Corps - Members of the Exploration Corps of the NGS are dedicated to delving into the unknown. Be it an unexplored geographical region, the dangerous lair of a beast, or a little visited foreign culture, these brave adventurers strive to document the unknown and obtain cultural and historical artifacts on our organization’s behalf.

These fearless adventurers are crucial in the endless quest for knowledge, and are organized and led by the Captain of the Exploration Corps. However, these are not your average grave robbers. They are trained, sensitive professionals who are as sharp of wit as they are in their exploratory skills.

The Research Division - The Research Division of the NGS is dedicated to the drafting of historical, natural, magical, and anthropological studies to be put on display in the various museum branches of our Society.

The writers within our Research Division are organized and sorted by the Chief of Research, whose job it is to organize the regular drafting of high quality scholarly works to be published either in the form of museum displays or in the form of public and archival missives.

The Personal Relations Agency - The Personal Relations Agency includes tour guides, public liaisons, and event planners who strive to maintain a lively atmosphere within the museums which the NGS maintains. While not the most glamorous of positions, these persons are nonetheless essential to running of the NGS and the performance of all of its operations.

These agents are organized by the Personal Relations Director, who sets the agenda for sponsored events to be had by the NGS. Every individual Curator may hire tour guides, public liaisons, and other employees at will, but the Personal Relations Director will be at their disposal to help advertise their operations.
